EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures Adèle van Meekren, the second wife of Dutch diamond dealer Andries van Wezel, in the height of affluence during the 1910s. Painted by renowned Dutch artist Willem Witsen, the oil on canvas work showcases Adèle's elegant and refined style. She is dressed in a richly colored, flowing dress adorned with intricate patterns and a luxurious fur stole. The portrait highlights the contrast between the softness of her clothing and the boldness of her accessories, including a statement pearl necklace and an emerald and diamond brooch. The use of vibrant colors and the meticulous attention to detail in the painting reflect the opulence of the Low Countries during this era. Adèle's expressive gaze and the subtle yet striking composition of the painting add to its timeless allure. The portrait is a testament to the wealth and heritage of the Netherlands in the early 20th century and a beautiful representation of the fashion and concept of affluence during this period. The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam is home to this masterpiece by Willem Witsen, a true treasure of Dutch art history.
